I am so excited to be back! I am looking forward to having a great rest of the year with some absolutely amazing students.
Here are some of the things that we will be working on this week. Math ~ We will be starting things off by reevaluating our mindsets towards math. We will be engaging in some very fun at activities designed by renowned Math educator, Jo Boaler. Each activity is designed to make students think about math a little differently, challenging any preconceived notions they might have about being "bad" at math. We will also be starting a unit on unit rates and ratios. Students will be exploring multiplicative relationships, whole number unit rates and ratios. Reading ~ We will be starting a unit on Theme, exploring the importance that a theme can have on the way a story is written and communicated. Writing ~ The students have already been working on Procedural writing with Mr. Price and now they will have a chance to apply their skills in a current and fun way. Stay stunned! Science Grade 5 ~ We will be starting our unit on Energy Conservation. Students will be exploring the various forms and sources of energy and the ways in which energy can be transformed and conserved. Grade 6 ~ We will be starting our unit on Electricity and Electrical devices. Students will be exploring the principles of electrical energy and its transformation into and from other forms of energy. I am looking forward to learning with everyone!
